Vietnam Travel - is it possible for a foriegner to be a Travel and tour guide in Vietnam?


Travel Info
Hello all,

is it possible for a foriegner to be a tour guide in Vietnam? I am moving to Nha Trang in less than 6 weeks to be with my girlfriend. I have been an english teacher before, but I wouldn't mind trying something new. Now Nha Trang is a big tourist destination - would people use a foriegn tour guide vs. a local?

Now last year I had one local guide who was absolutely wonderful(she was in Chau Doc). She really set the tone for my vietnamese trip and I just absolutely loved (and fell in love) Vn. But sometimes the access to Vietnamese who speak good english isn't readily available, and thats why a foriegner might come in handy. Just wondering peoples opinions. Lets get some discussion going.

Thanks in Advance

Brian

why not most travelers speak english at the least as a second language if your gonna be there why not give it a shot but immerse yourself in the culture and learn as much as you can bout the history but i truely dont know how easy it would be to get a job there if you're not a citizen you'll have to find that out when u get there they are communist
Sorry Brian, but the answer is NO. You can not to be a tour guide as you have not got enough cultural & traditional knowledge to explain to tourist.
i'm a Vietnamese and i 'm glad to tell u that a foriegner can be a tour guide, but that's rely on which country do u come from. Actually, there is short of tour guide who can speak Korean, Japanese,... but i think English is very popular so that it's hard for u. Thanks
